So that you might decide to release 1.3.3 with a known problem!! I
really don't care if you do. I really don't care that it's a problem.
I really don't have time to debug this but I thought I might give it a
shot. I thought it might be nice for developers who answer the
questions on the mailing list to already know that it's a problem. Go
ahead and change the name to cygwin-heads-up, for all that matter change
it to cygwin-i-dont-care.
Earnie.
